Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: At what point do you sell the stock or double up on your share count. The ‘fundamentals haven’t changed’,only peoples perception on its stock price has changed and I have a 5 year hold. I have contemplated waiting for another sharp drop and buy additional shares - like double my present position. OR I thought that if the stock hit the 200 day moving average I would sell. FYI - I bought the stock at $40 ish and sold at $80 ish. Bought again at $100 ish and sold at $150 ish. Finally I bought it again at $180 ish and still own the stock. Like all of us I have owned stocks that went up and down dramatically only to hold on to long, ie Valient.

Q: Hi Gang, thanks to 5i I have a nice problem as I got into the above at 60$ CDN (200 shares) but are now very overweight in my portfolio and was thinking of selling 50 shares but have no clue what’s the real valuation of the company is and where it’s going from here, do you have any insight to what the next earnings will bring us in October. Thanks Anthony

Q: Hi there,

Which of these stocks would you be adding to or starting a position in and why? All have pulled back to some extent so my question is which have the most upside assuming I can handle volatility? I am okay with a response suggesting to buy all 5 if you can please explain why each has come down too much and has room to go up. Deduct as you see fit and thanks!

Q: I have a question about Shopify US. Due to price drop in Shopify shares, I sold off 100 shares yesterday morning to maintain profits. I am still holding 50 Shares that I purchased the end of August for 394.00. With yesterday's offering which looks like it will reduce price further, would you advise to sell and buy back at what would hopefully be lesser price or just ride it out.? Thank you.

Q: Hello 5i,
I've done well with Shopify and Amazon with SHOP being up over 1000%. Lucky me!
They now collectively make up a little under 10% of my holdings. Everything I see says "better days ahead" so I don't mind holding on to them being a long term holder.
What do you think, is my exposure too concentrated?
Thanks in advance.

Q: In possible answer to Bruce's question about why Shopify and Lightspeed are down heavily today, there was an article on the Motley Fool today which said that anyone buying these stocks was gambling, not investing, as they were both ridiculously overpriced and subject to huge risk.
